My EDC is a Wilson Combat X-TAC Commander 1911. It cost a bomb, weighs a ton and carries just eight rounds of ammo. On the positive side, it weighs a ton (minimizing recoil), conceals like a jaguar and enables me to hit precisely what I’m aiming at. That said, the Wilson X-TAC is not my bedside ballistic BFF. That honor goes to my GLOCK 19 with night sights and a Surefire snout light. And now this . . .
The new Wilson Combat X-TAC Combat LightRail. It shares my gun’s basics — including the high price ($2,985) — and has a rail to accommodate accessories for “working operators everywhere.” Even when they’re in bed. My inner operator says yes. My cash flow says no. Still, I can’t recommend this model enough, made better by this simple addition. This gun buying thing is a sickness. Just sayin’ . . .
